Depression Poems
#depression
Depression takes a person beyond feelings of sadness, to a very dark and lonely place. Poetry about depression offers the reader a glimpse into this darkness and isolation. Depression is a serious mental disorder. A creative outlet, like writing poetry, can offer relief to some sufferers.

Sentimental Artifacts
My world fell apart before we trended the apocalypse
You are a week worth a life time
I am frozen in a moment
You are seconds of eternity
I'll never know a paradise like the promise of you
Tie my thoughts together to keep the mind intact
When I'm learning how I'm suppose to react
When there's no how to on losing someone close to you
Just ample opportunities to correct my line of thinking
Like fine tuning perspectives to truth
Caught between processing the way I feel
And contending for hope as love is weaponized in loss ...
You are a week worth a life time
I am frozen in a moment
You are seconds of eternity
I'll never know a paradise like the promise of you
Tie my thoughts together to keep the mind intact

When there's no how to on losing someone close to you
Just ample opportunities to correct my line of thinking
Like fine tuning perspectives to truth
Caught between processing the way I feel
And contending for hope as love is weaponized in loss ...

Feel it too
I don’t know what’s wrong with me
Grandpa died but I didn’t cry
I Feel the dread in other peoples eyes
Gas on pump three
double checked
Each look back I see
the stress she’s showing
The need for overtime and sleep
Her baby crying the dad said goodbye
He parted ways court didn’t help
What a surprise waking early before sunrise
raising alone tiny apartment
scratching up change
tears her apart And
knowing she’s barely making way
Customers preoccupy her days
Till worries rush by
come up...
Grandpa died but I didn’t cry
I Feel the dread in other peoples eyes
Gas on pump three
double checked
Each look back I see
the stress she’s showing
The need for overtime and sleep
Her baby crying the dad said goodbye
He parted ways court didn’t help
What a surprise waking early before sunrise
raising alone tiny apartment
scratching up change
tears her apart And
knowing she’s barely making way
Customers preoccupy her days
Till worries rush by
come up...

Worth the fight
Stronger each day that I try
Im moving on,
Not just getting along.
That one decision changed my life.
Consumed by not feeling alive,
every day made me wish that I’d die.
I didn’t care enough to try,
I couldn’t move, Just sit and cry.
Undeserving, selfish, worthless
So dead and numb inside.
Sunlight my greatest hate
Mornings tears cried straight away,
I’d weep for hours, never rising my head.
Cold cheeks,
runny nose and Dizziness.
My sad face buried deep all day,
in a soaking wet pillowcase.
...

Screams
My body screams
To be touched
Sensuality often lacking
Or simply not there
My mind screams
To be heard
To share interactively
Making a cerebral connection
Want to talk
Want to share
Near impossible
With aloofness near
Ending up here
Time and time again
In my room of abyss
I often despair
My bed a favorite friend
I can play and romp
All by myself
And really who cares
In the darkness
No one can see
No one can hear
Quiet as a mouse
Behind...
To be touched
Sensuality often lacking
Or simply not there
My mind screams
To be heard
To share interactively
Making a cerebral connection
Want to talk
Want to share
Near impossible
With aloofness near
Ending up here
Time and time again
In my room of abyss
I often despair
My bed a favorite friend
I can play and romp
All by myself
And really who cares
In the darkness
No one can see
No one can hear
Quiet as a mouse

I am
I never truly understood what people meant by they used music to escape. Well i thought i didn't. I thought "why would I need an escape? and how could someone ever escape through something as simple as sound". I never really remembered actually listening to music until the other night. I put on my headphones and just let the music hit me and as it did, the memories followed. Crashing into me hard and overwhelming me. I will admit i cried for so long.
What I remembered the most was those soft moment between songs. Where the music fades and I fell back into the world around me....

Digital Transcendence Part II
Laying here
In our digital transcendence
Breathing you into me
Making you a part of me
You feeling my feminine
Curvy smiles
Fingers and hands
Feeling the slope of me .
Pulling me closer to you
I begin to feel your heat
You, the one who
Has touched
My very existence
Drawing me even closer
Tears are welling up
Leaving me near breathless
You really do have
A tremendous affect on me
You pull in close
Positioning me
You slide your full
Manhood into my
Open legs...

Unaware
You said that you care.
You said you'd be there.
You said for me you'd go anywhere.
I opened up and you still have secrets that you wont share.
You are facing a simular battle and your judgement towards me isn't fair.
When you asked me to hear you out I pulled up a chair.
To judge or hurt you I wouldnt dare.
Your Love and support were things you just couldn't spare.
Trust for others for me was rare.
You manipulated me and I was complety unaware.
You said you'd be there.
You said for me you'd go anywhere.
I opened up and you still have secrets that you wont share.
You are facing a simular battle and your judgement towards me isn't fair.
When you asked me to hear you out I pulled up a chair.
To judge or hurt you I wouldnt dare.
Your Love and support were things you just couldn't spare.
Trust for others for me was rare.
You manipulated me and I was complety unaware.

My Blues Is My Home
my blues is my home, sweet baby,
familiar as you,
warm when i want 'em to be,
deep as sky
and starless
and don't want nothin --
don't want
no
love
no
happy
just want to be
this stretch
o' lonesome road
rutted out
and muddied
and slow
and just plain
ruint
yet
the deepest
goddamn pretty blue
you can imagine
familiar as you,
warm when i want 'em to be,
deep as sky
and starless
and don't want nothin --
don't want
no
love
no
happy
just want to be

o' lonesome road
rutted out

Execution
execution
I know it shouldn't be this way, but getting out of bed makes me feel like I am heading to the gallows.
The pain inside from words of judgments while I'm looking in the mirror feels like my heart is being pierced by arrows.
Even though this mental battle feels like it consumes me it is easy to disguise.
Maybe a part of me wants to be lead to my demise.

Your words were almost fatal
I thought my heart was broken and my soul was crushed before,
Yet some how the words you said knocked me to the floor.
After that I felt like a worthless, toxic, fool shattered by betrayal,
The solution I came to was going to be catastrophically fatal.
Yet some how the words you said knocked me to the floor.

Shattered
You were once someone I came to about my inner demons intagonizing me and sufficating me from within,
You said that you understood and would support me through this, but you stabbed me in the back and I don't think I'll ever trust you again.
I've been hurt so many times that my heart is shattered,
It hurts to face the reality that to you none of my pain ever mattered.
Your lack of remorse and constant hypocrisy is unfair,
It's a heavy weight on my soul to know that for you I was always there,
but now that I need you; you...

no amount of "time"
walking til the ankles bleed; miles for water and potential seeds; weighing possibilities as if it were a luxury
truly; no amount of time is guaranteed, especially for tired hearts and worn out feet; or when there's no need to brush the teeth;
or without a wash for weeks; mouths are what you see when someone speaks; respectfully;
feeling like an aged old tree
depression with a tight grip squeeze; whole body like a cavity; defying laws of gravity; hardly, plugged into "reality" ....
